Hello all,  
For some reason, which I think is related to the add-ons I installed  
(the 40+ add-ons from The Anking) I am not able to paste anything on Anki, whenever I try pasting, the message below appears. Copying works fine, but pasting does not work, be it through Ctrl + V or with mouse right click and paste. I hope someone can help me.  
Thanks in advance.  
Edit: Now i’ve found out that disabling the image resizer add-on solves the problem. Any way I can ahve it on and not face the problem?

Error  
An error occurred. Please start Anki while holding down the shift key, which will temporarily disable the add-ons you have installed.  
If the issue only occurs when add-ons are enabled, please use the Tools\>Add-ons menu item to disable some add-ons and restart Anki, repeat until you discover the add-on that is causing the problem.  
When you’ve discovered the add-on that is causing the problem, please report the issue on the add-ons section of our support site.

The issue with ImageResizer was fixed and an updated version was uploaded to [AnkiWeb](https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1214357311).  
But I think you need Anki 2.1.36 or higher to be able to download that version.
